SEM micrographs for the pure CaO–MgO–Al{sub 2}O{sub 3}–SiO{sub 2} glass sintered at 850–1000 °C (a) 850 °C, (b) 900 °C, (c) 950 °C, (d) 1000 °C. - Highlights: • ZrO{sub 2} effects on the crystallization of LTCC glass system were investigated. • ZrO{sub 2} effects on the dielectric properties of LTCC glass system were investigated. • LTCC with a dielectric constant of 6.65 and a low dielectric loss can be obtained. - Abstract: The zirconium oxide effects on the crystallization and dielectric properties of CaO–MgO–Al{sub 2}O{sub 3}–SiO{sub 2} (CMAS) glass were investigated. The results showed that phyllosiloxide and anorthite crystallites were observed in sequence during sintering. For glass added with 8 wt% ZrO{sub 2}, homogeneously dispersed tetragonal ZrO{sub 2} crystallites were observed at 850 °C. The as-prepared CMAS glass–ceramics exhibited a dielectric constant of about 6–7 and a dielectric loss below 0.005 at 100 MHz. The dielectric properties of CMAS glass with 8 wt% ZrO{sub 2} sintered at 850 °C show a low dielectric constant of 6.65 and a dielectric loss tangent of about 2.5 × 10{sup −3}, which provides a promising candidate for LTCC applications.
